Ok talk to me about slipper adjustment. Currently have the stock V2 slipper assembly from the 4.1 Worlds, and am running a 8.5t non boosted motor (if that matters). My slipper had been WAY too tight and the diff was slipping...I have that figured but how tight should I make it? I loosened it to the point where the front lifts a few inches (3-4 maybe) when holding the rear wheels and hitting full throttle but if I put it on the carpet and gun it it will do a back flip (obviously not holding it).
Should I loosen this more?

It's been like 20 years since I setup a buggy.

Yo Copeland do you know if Hartson has already had these new shock towers all this time ? When I've looked at his car at OC_RC, it looked like the towers were fine (granted I was looking at the shocks & springs far closer than the towers).
These pics of Maifield & Denny's cars from the Hotrod Shootout don't look like mangled shock towers either

It should work fine. I have one in my SCT and was using it with the BH 120a before I switched to Viper. Only issue I had was when I went to the LT4 and the BEC went after 60 seconds of running, never a glitch with the original 120a.

blue is better!
I wanted to at least honor is roots! jk. Th pivot balls are in the mail from hong Kong. It took longer to find the parts than it did to build. Europe, Australia, china......etc. it was fun though. Thanks for the compliments. It is still completely race ready, I didn't change or sacrafice any geometry or structural integrity to look good. My 4x4 is next.
